Mission details

The CORONAS project envisioned solar research missions during
different phases of the 11-year long solar cycle. While CORONAS-I, launched in March 1994,
operated during the solar activity minimum, CORONAS-F was scheduled for
launch near the current 23rd solar activity cycle maximum.

space agencies and Academies of sciences. Taking part in the project are also Poland, Germany,
